Tampa Bay Drops Kansas City, 6-3
Tampa Bay Rays starter Scott Kazmir was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Kansas City Royals, 6-3. Grant Balfour picked up the save, his 3rd. The Rays, now 6-2, have been playing some good baseball.

Julio Lugo had a big 2-run double for the Rays in the top of the fifth inning. With Tampa Bay leading 3-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a fastball from Kevin Appier and swatted a double to right. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rays ahead, 5-0.

"Scott works, he fights, and he keeps a good attitude," said Rays manager .
